Hotdogs, ice cream and a big thank you!
Join us for a community celebration on Thursday, Aug. 14, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Orcas Senior Center as we mark two major milestones — full ownership of our building and the purchase of a brand-new walk-in cooler for our nutrition program!
We are incredibly grateful to the Orcas Island Lions Club for their generous support and to all the community donors who helped make building ownership possible. A special thank-you goes to the Whatcom Council on Aging for the grant that funded the new cooler, ensuring that meals for seniors and others in need can continue. Enjoy free hot dogs and ice cream, live music by Orcatrazz and the good company of friends.
